The neural bases of the multiplication problem-size effect across countries

Multiplication problems involving large numbers (e.g., 9x8) are more difficult to solve than problems involving small numbers (e.g., 2x3). Behavioral research indicates that this problem-size effect might be due to different factors across countries and educational systems. However, there is no neur...
